So a feature that made this game unique from many others in the series is either reduced or gone completely. Fantastic.

Honestly though, I don't think it'll impact offline play too much because there aren't many players at the franchise mode level that have extremely high HR/9, and it needed to be pretty high to actually see a consistent difference in exit velocities. It'll affect DD pretty significantly as many of the top-line pitchers DO have high HR/9 (and they were probably being used by just about everyone at this point in the year).

I just don't like this caving to community pressure - it sets a bad precedent even if the impact on this game offline turns out to be minor.

Edit: Cubs highlights (especially Baez) in the Fall intro are making me sad right now.
